Definition

Indicator that when clearing open items in foreign currency, translation gains and/or losses are to be posted.

Use

Translations are posted if the item to be cleared has already been revalued once during foreign currency valuation.

The valuation difference is posted to a separate translation account, the offsetting entry is made to a clearing account.

The translation accounts then contain the part of the realized exchange gains of a period which were anticipated by a prior valuation.
